Description
Throughout the semester, first-generation college students may experience personal and academic difficulties prohibiting them from being successful. Often times, students will not avail themselves of the assistance offered by support staff and faculty thinking they may be a burden. By not seeking assistance to address their struggles, students can instead take on shame impacting their academic performance, self-esteem, and role development as a college student. Using case studies, participants will experience supporting a student through the shame recovery process. During this presentation participants will explore the concept of shame, discuss Van Vliet’s (2008) rebuilding approach, and apply tools to help individuals process and manage experiences that could lead to a shame response.
